It was the same with DC and Virginia in the late 70's and early 80's
when you could only take 1 gallon of booze across state lines. People
would buy booze, lots of booze, in DC at lunch time and then when they
would drive home after work the ATF would bust them when they crossed
from DC into Virginia. It was funny to see people on the side of the
road having a couple of big boxes of booze and wine bought in DC pulled
form their trunks while they were in hand-cuffs.

With the amount of traffic, I wonder how they got spotted, or if it
was random?

The cops would park outside the booze stores and follow the idiot.

What a waste of law enforcement resources.
